red shirt

Trekkers knew that if a "red shirt" — a non-regular cast member garbed in a red Starfleet tunic — was assigned to a landing party with Captain Kirk, the odds were very much against him or her returning from that mission. "Red shirts" were the expendable members of the crew, and viewers were never really surprised if the poor innocents were snuffed by the episode's end.

Red shirts deal with weapons and crash and salvage operations.

Well, it was not too easy today, because the red shirts were staging a big rally in Bangkok this weekend.

Are our Garibaldians, the red shirts, there?
